Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas - Xbox 360

Single player boasts a realistic and exciting story line and leaves you craving more. Controls handle flawlessly. Nice graphics. The AI at times may be a little idiotic. A multitude of online gameplay options! Great selections of weaponry. Ability to input you face on your online character via box live vision camera. Customize gear and unlock new weapons. By far one of my favorite 360 games to date! Highly recommend!!

This is a fun and exciting tactical first person shooter. It has a deep multiplayer with a lot of different game modes and maps to choose from that support up to 16 players. This game has reshaped the Rainbow Six franchise and propelled its popularity with this first installment on the next-generation consoles. This game does not focus on the tactical aspect as much as previous Rainbow Six games did. Instead it is FPS first and a tactical shooter second. You cannot do as well at this game by ignoring the tactical component, but you can get by with little tactical appraisal of the situation before rushing into a room. The game has a great story that will leave you wanting to play the second installment just to see how the story ends. It is a fun game that offers plenty of replay value in either the single player (thanks to the terrorist hunt option) or the multiplayer. A side note on the multiplayer is that you can also play the story mode and terrorist hunts online with up to four players. The bottom line is that this is a great game to pick up if you are looking for a solid FPS that has a great multiplayer.

This game is a fun challenge on the higher difficulty settings. The beautiful graphics, combined with the realistic tactical movements, and intelligent AI make for a fun, heart pounding gaming experience. My only problem is I feel the multiplayer options were not clearly defined or stated on the box and in the manual. It alludes to four player co-op, but does not say only over system link or network games. This game does not clearly state that it is only a two player split screen game, unlike the four player split screen in Halo 3. Other than that, it is an awesome game.

This game is just all out good. the story starts off in mexico and ends uo at the hoover dam!! when i played it it was jawdropping, i mean the way u can hide around all of the walls and everything. But then to the multiplayer, it is fantastic most of the time you will be playing with people more your age then the average 13 yr old kid. this was great. the ranking system is sweet! you go from a private grade 2 to an Elite. There is also alot of unlockable camos, armor, headgear, and guns. this game is a must buy game for all xbox 360 users, even if you dont have xbox live.

This game fits nicely, and easily into one of the few 5 star slots in my library. It's what we have come to expect from a Tom Clancy game and Ubi Soft. Absolutely a must have for all shooter gamers and really has no rival (though GRAW2 does hold it's own). Game-play has an excellent blend of technical approach and combat/shooting. Not too much of either and just enough of both. Team is easy to command and control (but they should have included the ability to look through team members hud in order to pick out location to send them when your on the other side of the room- they did include that feature in GRAW2 so I don't know why they would leave it out in a more tactically based shooter. ) Otherwise, and even in spite of this, the game is nearly perfect. Graphics are great. I've never been to Vegas but my daughter tells me the game "looks just like Vegas". The controls are so simple and smooth that ordering and carrying out tactical actions including repelling, fast ropes, room entries, ect. are not tasks that take you out of the game while you consider and implement; instead, they absorb you in the game easily. You can use your Live headset and give voice commands to control your team but I found the time lapse between my voice and Team Commander's to be too lagging for the confidence you will need to think and act quickly during fire-fights. Again, not a problem, the controller works flawlessly. Another reviewer (on this site or another) had commented that this is a man's game. I agree but I'm sure there are some women out there that might claim it too. The price on this game is another big plus. If you don't have the $30.00 plus tax to throw down on it I would advise trading in Halo 3 for a discount. Your time with your XBOX will be much more challenging and much more fun.

This game will keep you entertained for months even after you beat the game (which is no easy task on realistic difficulty). Co-op mode with a friend is a great time and the single player story mode is very challenging and also entertaining. Great graphics, sound, and controls make this game an easy decision to buy!

This game is amazing, the graphics, story, and gameplay are all on point. The enemy AI is amazing. The enemies respond well to the different strategies you try so the gameplay remains challenging. Buy this game! It will be your new addiction!

Finally a strong multiplayer for the Xbox360. I would recommend this game as a must have for the console. Sure GRAW has the stronger single player story. But RSV delivers with the online multiplayer. Customize characters (even putting your own picture with the Xbox Vision Cam). Smooth gameplay, Great graphics (which looks better in HD) and plenty of modes to enjoy for a long time. The only thing that RSV lacks is inviting a guests online for more gameplay.
